Comment:

 Replying to [comment:8 nacin]:
 > I've been thinking about a new `pre_main_query` hook that parallels
 pre_get_posts but only runs `$query->is_main_query() and !
 $query->is_admin()`. That might take some of the magic out of using
 pre_get_posts.

 Let's do this.

 Attached a patch for consideration. The docs might need some work, I've
 just copied them from `pre_get_posts`.
